Venue: Johannesburg

Paraguay vs Spain Match Preview is done here for the upcoming quarter-finals match to be played on the 2nd of July in Cape Town at the Green Point Stadium. Moving forth into the quarter finals both teams are determined to perform at their best for this match. Even though this may not be the biggest of challenges for the La Roja team, they can hardly afford to screw this one up. Paraguay on the on the other hand are going to face some real tough opponent for the first time in this world cup.

With the early and unexpected exit of the Italians from group F, the post of the champions for the group was taken over by Paraguay. They qualified with 5 points and faced the Japanese in the round of 16, where Los Guaraníes just managed to grab a victory over Okada’s men by winning 5-3 in the penalty shoot-outs. Gerardo Martino, Paraguay coach also known as El Tata by his men was relieved by the result and said “ There’s a lot of tension and anxiety and you suffer because the players are putting in so much effort, Let’s hope we can recover quickly and keep making history” . And to make anymore history at this world cup the Paraguay teams needs to play far better than what they have played so far.

Paraguay vs Spain Match Preview is incomplete without the analysis of the Spanish team. The Spaniards moved to the quarter finals by defeating Christiano Ronaldo’s home team-Portugal. The Spanish fans are all praise for their luminary striker David Villa because of his exceptional performance in this world cup and the knack of scoring in every game that he seems to have acquired since the start of the tournament. This is what he commented after the match “We’ve beaten a very tough side and we have a lot of confidence in ourselves and in our potential”.

Though the Spanish star player Torres has failed to click in their last few matches since his return from injury, his performance was considerably better in the last match and Bosque, Spain’s coach showed confidence in him “Fernando Torres did what he had to do and we all felt pretty comfortable with how we played”.

Whoever wins the match will meet the winner of the Germany vs Argentina match in the Semi-finals at Durban.

Venue: Johannesburg

Uruguay vs Ghana Match Preview will clear the air for those who are all worked up for this match. This match is to be held on 2nd of July in Johannesburg at the swanky Soccer City Stadium. Being the first match to be decided for the quarter finals, the Uruguay v/s Ghana match has everyone talking as to what is in store for them in this next phase of the world cup.

Ghana defeated USA’s team in the round of sixteen with a 2-1 score line, thanks to the 93rd minute goal by Asamoah Gyan which helped the black stars dream alive. At first it seemed that this nail biter match could go either way but Ghana showed true spirit to overpower their opponents and win. “We have made everybody proud, not Ghana alone, but the whole of Africa” is what the elated Gyan had to say about their win and not without reason since Ghana is the solitary survivor of the African contingent which participated but failed to show great results. The match against the 16th ranked Uruguay team would not be an easy game to win for the Black Stars who hold the 32nd position but this does not stop Samuel Inkoom, Ghana midfielder from being confident “I don’t think Uruguay will be easy but I think we are capable of winning”.

A Uruguay vs Ghana Match Preview is the best method to comprehend the underlying factors which can affect this match.The Uruguay team for one has a relatively young side but highly talented none the less. La Celeste team is sprinkled with a great number of players who play for European clubs and the team is bolstered by their strong coach Oscar Washington Tabarez. El Maestro, as he is known in his homeland has done quite a job on his team having led Uruguay to the world cup second time consecutively. The Uruguayans entered the quarter finals by squashing the hopes of the South Korean team who played a grilling match but lost 2-1 to the two time world champions. “It was a very hard-fought victory that took a lot out of us” is how Tabarez described the clash between the nations.

Expected outcome:

Ghana team has shown great determination in South Africa so far but the South Americans look more poised for a good game having topped their group in the initial stages of the world cup as well.

This is what the Uruguay vs Ghana Match Preview says for this upcoming match in Johannesburg.

Venue: Mangaung/Bloemfontein

Out of the many matches in the World Cup, few will hold such emotional significance as the Germany v/s England match preview is speaking of. Set to go on the 27th of June at Bloemfontein, this match speaks volumes of the hopes and aspirations of Europe’s Football fans. So far, as per performance shows, European Football has been less than impressive except Portugal and Spain showing grand performance.

While Germany seems somehow not up to their usual rank; a shaky England side with out-of-form star Wane Rooney had finally gotten back team unity and performance in their last Stage 1 match against Slovenia. Now, Germany has found back their classic strategy and fast ball exchange gameplay, while England seems to be recovering from frayed management and fallen team spirit.

With the Knockouts ready to happen, all teams know that the situation is critically boiling with excitement. Stage 2 doesn’t leave scopes for draws or retakes; each match is decisive for progress into the Quarter Finals. Germany is looking forward to ensure rigid and hard gameplay and give the English competition well deserved. On the English squad, with emotions high as the team is uniting again to reach Victory, the British seem to be getting back to their class act.

From strategic gameplay to fast and aggressive ball battle; the English team seems to be prepared for any surprises from the German rivals. Knowing the football fever and the history between these two countries both in and out of the field; the Germany vs. England Match preview seems to be holding all the surprise back till the end of 90 minutes of serious Football action coming to conclusion.

Speculations do speak of the English team not really being prepared enough to face the promising German onslaught, but such speculations fall short in the Football field. Upsets are common and astonishing performances even more familiar in the Sport the world swoons for most. After all, this sporting event is the most popular and keenly hypnotizing event the world sees every 4 years. Champions are made on the grass as Countries compete for the Final glory.

With such a fervent build up of adrenaline and emotions; this match has mixed speculations from either supports. Looking closely at what has happened so far may really bear no mark on what may be to come. The Germany v/s England Match preview can only be described as an unpredictable event prepared to take stage on Sunday.
